Oncology-first medication safety

Medication safety, reasoned from the drug outward.

MedSiLa captures the symptom, then reasons on the drug, in one pipeline. Built for oncology, where polypharmacy risk is highest and the margin for error is thinnest.

Why it matters

The Problem

Oncology patients are among the most medically complex populations in healthcare. Multiple concurrent therapies, narrow therapeutic windows, and drug interactions with unpredictable timing mean adverse drug reactions are often caught late, after a patient has already been harmed or a treatment has already failed.

Most existing tools solve one piece of this: a symptom tracker that captures data but does not reason about drugs, or a drug interaction checker that flags a theoretical risk with no patient context. Neither closes the loop between what a patient is experiencing and what is causing it.

The pipeline

The Platform: How MedSiLa Works

MedSiLa is a four-stage pipeline that turns patient-reported symptoms and clinical data into causality-adjudicated, actionable alerts.

1

Capture

Structured electronic patient-reported outcomes (ePRO) capture symptoms as they happen, not weeks later at the next visit.

2

Contextualize

Symptom data is enriched with the patient's full medication record through FHIR and SMART on FHIR integration, pulling in concurrent therapies, dosing, and timing directly from the EHR.

3

Reason

A causality-gated fusion engine evaluates each symptom against known drug-drug interaction pathways (CYP450, QTc), polypharmacy burden (Drug Burden Index), and adjudicated causality using established clinical frameworks (WHO-UMC, Naranjo, Liverpool, DIPS). Similar historical cases are retrieved to support the assessment.

4

Decide

Alerts are tiered and gated: immediate alert, hold-and-re-evaluate, or suppress-and-log, so care teams see what matters when it matters, without alert fatigue. Every output is informational, designed to support clinical judgment rather than replace it.

Focus

Why Oncology

Oncology is not a market MedSiLa expanded into. It is the starting point.

  • Polypharmacy is the norm, not the exception, in cancer care
  • Drug interactions in oncology regimens carry outsized clinical consequences
  • Existing point solutions (symptom trackers, generic interaction checkers) were not built for this level of complexity
  • Our clinical advisory reflects deep oncology drug safety experience
Foundation

Built on Clinical Rigor

MedSiLa's reasoning layer is grounded in the same frameworks clinicians already trust:

The core mechanism, a causality-gated fusion of interaction signals, polypharmacy burden, and patient context, is the subject of a pending patent application.

  • Causality adjudication: WHO-UMC, Naranjo, Liverpool, DIPS
  • Drug interaction detection: CYP450 and QTc pathway analysis
  • Polypharmacy risk: Drug Burden Index-based stratification
  • EHR interoperability: FHIR, SMART on FHIR, CDS Hooks
